Fir Ends Primary School

SCHOOL UNIFORM

Our school uniform specification was updated for September 2019.

In the main school, it is a bottle green upper (polo shirt and sweatshirt) paired with black trousers or a pleated skirt. Shoes should be black and appropriate for 'active wear' - this is particularly important when choosing girls' shoes, which are frequently inappropriate for running in. 

Tights and socks should be black, white or dark grey.

For nursery pupils, the upper is a golden yellow polo shirt and a bright green sweater.

Summer adjustments are listed and can be worn from Easter to the mid-October half-term.

The full specification is detailed below. 

SUPPLIERS:

Embroidered items can be purchased online from Border Embroideries, using the links to the right. These items should inform the purchase of similar items from alternative suppliers.

Non-embroidered items in the appropriate colour and style can be widely purchased from supermarkets and high-street chains. 

PRE WORN UNIFORM

Our PTA operates a redistribution service for pre-worn uniform when children have outgrown it or have left the school.

Embroidered and unembroidered items are available and donations gratefully received of all uniform items.

Further details can be found here.

A note on bags:

We don't have space in school to store large backpacks, and these are unnecessary for the small number of items that children should routinely be carrying back and forth. Children should use an a4 bookbag (or similar). If they can't fit what they need easily into one of those, they are (probably) bringing more than they need to school!
